Equipment
- Large Mixing Bowl
- Spoon or spatula
- Measuring Cups
- Measuring Spoons
- Plate or tray
- Parchment paper
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup natural peanut butter
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Mix the Dry Ingredients
- Add rolled oats, protein powder and chia seeds into a large bowl. Stir them well using a spoon. Make sure everything looks evenly mixed before adding the wet ingredients.
Add the Wet Ingredients
- Add peanut butter, honey and vanilla extract to the bowl. Stir slowly at first. Then mix well until everything comes together like thick dough.
Fold in Chocolate Chips
- Add chocolate chips into the mixture. Stir gently so they spread evenly. This gives sweet bites in every ball. Do not overmix at this step.
Shape the Protein Balls
- Scoop small amounts of mixture using your hands. Roll into small balls. Place each ball on parchment paper. Make sure they are firm and round.
Chill Before Serving
- Put the tray in the fridge for about 20 minutes. This helps the balls firm up. After chilling, they are ready to eat and enjoy.
Notes
- Use creamy peanut butter for smooth texture.
- If mixture feels dry, add one spoon honey.
- If mixture feels sticky, add extra oats.
- Chill hands slightly before rolling balls.
- Store in fridge for better taste.
